Abstract

Nanofiber technology is an important branch of the growing discipline - nanotechnology. Nanofiber textiles are finding increasing number of applications in filtration industry, particularly in processes involving remediation technologies. Materials in nanofiber form do not only lead to superior functions due to the nano-effect, but also provide a means to deliver additional qualities to higher order structures. Model described in this article was developed to solve tasks of coupled heat and moisture transfer. By this model, can be tested the influence of different parameters (material of fibers, design of fiber structure) on the textile performance and get a lot of information without producing the real textile.
